oldbreadstinks >> Physically weaker? Some women are
stronger than most of the guys here, its just that most women dont
train physically (not that they should). Combat wise, modern day
war is not really fought using bare hands or muscles, ie we use
guns.
Fair enough, I understand there must be people guiding the elderly
and kids to shelters, but do you need 1 for 1 guiding? Do you need
a person to 'distribute' food/water/necessities to every ONE other,
1 to 1? Big waste of resources here.
I am not saying that girls should be added to any specific
vocation, i.e. combat. There are many other such as medic and
logistics (incl controller, communications, store, arms store,
cook, drivers, technicians etc) which they will prove to be of
great help. Even when guys enrol in NS, not all are combat
vocations! Preferably, assigning them to their relevant skills (aka
related to their jobs/edu backgrd) will be ideal. Remember that we
already have a shortage of nurses even during peace times, what
will happen during war?! Also, training medics can prove to be very
useful during times of crisis, not only during wartime, an example
is natural disaster, terrorists attacks, etc.
No matter what role we play during wartime, I repeat: WHERES THE
TRAINING? Getting prepared is very important! Who knows what to do
or where to go during wartime? Dont think that we can still switch
on the TV or listen to radio for guides, coz one of the first few
priority targets during war is to shut down communications. No more
TV or radio for you.
